MTL - Restart the Protagonist’s Way of Survival-Chapter 133 Zen country

"So, what are you doing here again?"

"Come to chat with you."

"..." It was an unsurprising answer.

Yang Dejin put down the pen in his hand: "It's weird, doesn't Bai Qingyang agree with you to resume work? Why are you still so idle?"

Li Zi spread out his hands: "My work is done, but her meetings are endless."

"Then you go to the meeting too."

"She made those ministers suffer a lot by herself. If I go to a meeting again, won't I give them a double debuff?"

Yang Dejin muttered: "Where is your debuff... You are obviously like a damage reduction shield..."

If Li Zichou attended, those ministers would not be able to thank Dade and cry bitterly.

Originally looking forward to the stars and looking forward to the moon, she finally woke up this Sleeping Beauty. As a result, this person fished for three days and dried the nets for two days. Bai Qingyang continued to be her regent queen, and she saw that those ministers would have to suffer.

Yang Dejin was indifferent: "Go away, I'm busy."

Li Zichou: "Busy, please be busy, everyone is busy..."

"Stop, stop!" Yang Dejin hurriedly made a stop motion, "Why did you score twice..."

"I have something to do with you. You can quickly finish what you are doing."

"That won't work," Yang Dejin said awkwardly, pointing to the next pile, "There are so many waiting for me..."

"His Royal Highness Prince Yu, I will leave these matters to the subordinate officials." Zhongshuling and the servant appeared from nowhere and picked up the stack of documents with professional smiles on their faces.

Yang Dejin: "Oh but..."

Zhongshu Ling: "The case is exhausting, Your Highness should go and relax."

Zhongshu's servant: "Let's leave it to our servants to take care of it."

Yang Dejin: "But I..."

Zhongshu Ling: "Her Majesty must have something very important to see you."

Zhongshu Shilang: "There are too many idlers waiting here, so it's not a good place to discuss important matters."

Yang Dejin: "No..."

Zhongshu Ling: "Master Yu, hurry up and send off His Royal Highness Prince Yu!"

Zhongshu Shilang: "Oh yes yes, Your Highness, this way please."

Yang Dejin: "..." Why does it feel like chasing someone away?

Li Zichou: "..." The idlers are talking about the two of them...

//

Prince Dashengyu's Mansion.

The temperature is still very low today, but at any rate it is not as cloudy as the previous few days. The sun is shining, although it can't bring any real warmth, it can make people feel much better.

There is a firewood in the backyard, and the red charcoal continues to provide heat for the small stove. On the stove is a small pot, stuffed with poultry, eggs, and vegetables, and it is bubbling.

Yang Dejin brought a small sauce made by himself, picked up the fried egg that had just been taken out of the pan, wrapped it inside, and hung the tiger skin with an attractive sauce. The garlic sauce is fragrant with sesame seeds mixed with a little spicy, Taking a sip while it was hot, it was almost numbing.

"Ah—" Yang Dejin sighed, "Before I die, I must ask Xie Zhi to bring me ten bowls of fried eggs with fried juice for offering."

Li Zifu glanced at her: "It's too exaggerated." He said and put a piece of tofu in his bowl.

"It's not an exaggeration at all, try it if you don't believe me!" Yang Dejin gave Li Zi another chopstick.

After Li Zichou tasted it, he let out an astonishing voice: "Ohhh—"

"How about it, isn't it delicious?!" Yang Dejin looked proud, "I know you like spicy food, so I specially put chili in it, lethal dose."

Li Zishou looked at her approvingly: "You know how to eat."

"That's not true."

"Speaking of which, there are peppers in this winter."

"I have purchased goods from Hu Shang, and I made them into pickled peppers. It's no problem to store them for a year or so. When you want to eat them, you can just open the jar."

"...Hu Shang is really omnipotent." After a pause, Li Zichou said, "You are quite omnipotent too."

After hearing this, Yang Dejin said "modesty and modesty" on his lips, but on his face he had a proud expression of "extravagant praise".

There is no wind in the yard, and the wood is burning in the brazier on the side, crackling, splashing a few sparks from time to time, the weather is cloudy and sunny, and it is pleasant to roast the fire.

Li Zichou sighed: "Bai Qingyang is in a meeting and Xie Zhi is trying a case. Isn't it good for us to hide here and start a small business?"

Yang Dejin: "...then you should put down the bowl."

Li Zichou: "I don't." After speaking, he picked up the bowl and sucked.

"..." She could see that this woman's guilt was just lip service.

Yang Dejin shook her head, and scooped up two spoonfuls of soup for herself: "The business in the store is not good recently, so I just want to develop new recipes to attract customers."

Li Zichou pointed to the pot in front of him: "Your new recipe, is this sukiyaki pot?"

"That's right, you should come here to be my food consultant." Yang Dejin skillfully justified the laziness, "As for the two of them, after I have almost improved the recipe, it won't be too late to have a meal together. "

Li Zichou nodded with a serious face, as if he agreed with her speech: "I think what you said is very correct, then I have to fulfill my duty as a food consultant." After speaking, he began to bury his head in his mouth.

"..." Yang Dejin tapped the edge of the bowl with his chopsticks, "Hey, don't tell me you have business with me, you should tell me."

"Oh...I came here to discuss something with you, isn't it already winter?" Li Zichou slowed down his eating speed, "I was thinking, should I return the things that belonged to Bai Qingyang to her. "

Yang Dejin was slightly surprised: "Do you want Zen Kingdom?"

"Ok."

"It turns out that when you said you wanted to hand over power in winter, you didn't just say it casually."

"I had expected it a long time ago, do I need to announce your identity first?"

Because Yang Dejin complained about the girl disguised as a man before, saying that she wanted to restore her identity as a girl.

"Don't worry about my business. Have you thought about such a big thing?"

Li Zichou hummed: "I have been thinking about this for the past few days when I woke up. When I was in a coma, it was the time when Dasheng was in trouble at home and abroad. You know better than me how difficult that period was.

"Everyone is afraid, they thought that Dasheng's national fortune is coming to an end, but Bai Qingyang has done it, even if I am not in the court, she can still take care of the affairs of state and guard Dasheng's country.

"The current Bai Qingyang has already made her debut in the political arena as the Queen Regent, if she is allowed to directly succeed to the throne, it may not be too difficult for her.

"As you have seen, her ability, her courage, and her means are not comparable to that of a half-assed empress like me. She is the protagonist of this world, and she can make the country more prosperous. Dasheng entrusted her There is a lot of benefit in your hands and no harm."

"I know that, but..." Yang Dejin hesitated, "What about you, then what shall we do?"

"Do you still remember what was our primary goal after the two of us passed through the book?" Li Zishou stared at the boiling bubbles in the pot, "survive and get rid of the tragic fate of the villain's cannon fodder."

Yang Dejin nodded and hummed: "I remember."

"So, we have removed the setting of the villain, and it will be more than a year before the two of us usher in the end of death. It is time to break away from the main line of the plot."

Yang Dejin pondered for a while: "Specifically, what are you going to do?"

"Qin Tianjian and the Ministry of Rites are already preparing for the sacrifice of the winter solstice, and Bai Qingyang is fully sure to finish the battle before then. That is a good opportunity."

"Do you want to complete the authorization at the ceremony?"

"I want Bai Qingyang to be the protagonist of the festival, so that she can take over Dasheng's rule, and the name is justified."

"It's not that simple. Bai Qingyang's surname is not Li, and neither the government nor the public will accept it. Bai Qingyang will be the emperor unless she seizes power herself and changes the dynasty."

"I have many ways to settle all this for her, but I will never allow her to bear the infamy of seeking to usurp the throne. She is already the orthodox in this world, and of course she can inherit Dasheng."

"What about after she succeeds? What are we going to do?"

"Run away, stay away from this place of right and wrong, and live on."

"..."

The expected echo did not sound, Yang Dejin just silently stirred the soup in the bowl with a porcelain spoon, absent-minded, as if thinking about other things.

Li Zichou was quite puzzled: "Jin, what's wrong with you, what do you think is wrong?"

Yang Dejin lowered her eyes, a little lost in thought: "No...I'm just a little... reluctant."

"What are you reluctant to part with, are you reluctant to part with your high-ranking official and rich salary?"

"Do I look so snobbish?" Yang Dejin gave her a white look, "I just can't bear to thank Xie Zhi."

Li Zishou showed a surprised expression: "You and her..."

Yang Dejin picked up the bowl, drank the soup like drinking wine, and then said: "Xie Zhi confessed his love to me."

"What, what??" Li Zichou asked incredulously, "When did it happen, why didn't I know?!"

"It was the time of autumn hunting, in Chengguang Palace." Every time Yang Dejin recalled the scene at that time, an abnormal crimson color would appear on Yang Dejin's face, as if she was about to faint again. "Her words were very euphemistic and restrained, but The meaning expressed was very straightforward, and it almost didn't say those four words to me directly."

Obviously, before Xie Zhi's showdown, he had no feelings for her at all. After all, her sexual orientation was different from ordinary people, so after learning that Xie Zhi was a woman, he became guilty.

Li Zichou watched her face gradually turn red, and his mood was a little complicated: his friend who was known for his high defense was actually taken down by Xie Zhi, did he wear armor?

"Then, how did you answer her?" Li Zichou asked again hastily.

Yang Dejin pursed her lips: "I haven't answered her yet."

"what?"

"Because... I have never been in a relationship, and I don't know if she is serious, so these days, I have been confirming."

"What Aquaman."

"It's not Neptune!" Yang Dejin tried to save his reputation, "I'm confirming this!"

"Is that confirmed?"

"it's confirmed."

"result?"

"..." Yang Dejin held the tea cup to cover her mouth, as if she couldn't bear the shyness, she whispered, "She really likes me..."

Li Zichou: ...Damn it, why is the old woman pretending to be a virgin? !

"Although I have already seen that she has thoughts about you, I really didn't expect that she would have the courage to confess to you."

"Ah..." When she said this, Yang Dejin remembered, "You seem to have said this."

When Wan Bang came to court, Li Zichu said that Xie Zhi liked him, but he only thought she was talking nonsense. Perhaps it wasn't that Xie Zhi's intentions were too reserved, but that he was too slow. After all, Li Zishou was not the only one, and so many outsiders in the court could see it.

"Then how do you feel about her?" Li Zichou didn't forget to gossip about his best friend, "Is she completely grown in your aesthetic point?"

Yang Dejin hummed, and looked at the winter plums that were in full bloom in the courtyard: "That time in Chengguang Palace, she treated me...uh... Anyway, I don't think I can be pure friends with her anymore."

Although he wanted to know what part of her sentence was omitted, Li Zichou continued to say: "Then you want to be an impure friend with her?"

Yang Dejin suddenly laughed angrily: "Can you call me a friend if you are not pure?!"

"Hmmm... Isn't there a relationship that doesn't develop feelings but only stops at **** comfort?"

"Fuck off, Xie Zhi can't even tact with you if you can talk about friend ○ in such a fresh and refined way!"

Li Zichou clicked his tongue twice: Look, the three sentences cannot be separated from Xie Zhi, it seems that he really broke his defense.

"And..." Yang Dejin said hesitantly again, "Even if you don't develop feelings...it's too late."

Li Zichou couldn't help but swear, what did she miss during the autumn hunt? !

"Then the reason why you don't want to run away is also because of her?"

Yang Dejin picked up a piece of crispy meat in the pot, but this time he didn't admit it directly, but said: "It's not that I don't want to run away, I just think we can't run away."

"Why?" Li Zichou was puzzled, paused and asked again, "What is 'we'?"

"I really can't let go of Xie Zhi, but I think..." Yang Dejin pointed at her with chopsticks, "Even if you persuaded me, the courtiers and the people, you settled down all the obstacles that prevented Bai Qingyang from succeeding to the throne.

"Bai Qingyang himself will definitely not accept such a result, you didn't realize at all that she herself is the biggest obstacle in her succession.

"Bai Qingyang will not let you go."

The author has something to say:

Before the showdown, Yang Dejin belike: Double resistance is full, Wuhu!

After the showdown, Xie Zhi belike: Nanami is really hurt, kid!
